Adelaide V Melbourne,
Sunday, 2.40pm, AAMI Stadium
Melbourne upset Adelaide in round three at the MCG
by 16 points, winning 7.15.57 to 5.11.41. The Crows
had led by 19 points at half-time, 4.9 to 1.8 but kicked
just one more goal for the afternoon as the Demons
scored their first win of the season. Brett Burton
kicked three goals for the Crows as they were held
to their lowest score against the Demons.
Melbourne hasn't beaten Adelaide twice in a row
since 1998-99. Both games were at the MCG. But this
one is at AAMI Stadium where the Demons haven't
beaten Adelaide since 2001. The visitors won that
match 12.11.83 to 11.14.80 after a last-gasp goal from
Andrew Leoncelli. But their record against the Crows
at AAMI remains poor with five straight losses since
then for a total of three wins and 11 defeats. And in all
matches at AAMI, they've won just five of 26. Overall,
the Crows lead by 18 wins to 10. Melbourne has
never kicked 20 goals against the Crows.
Their highest score is 19.9.123 at AAMI Stadium in
1996. The same match also produced their best
winning margin against the Crows of 51 points.
Neither of the last two games between these sides
produced an aggregate of 100 points. Melbourne
hasn't kicked 100 points against the Crows in any of
their last 10 meetings.
IT WAS SAID
"One player is not so

CK & THRINGY'S OUT ON THE FULL
Round 14 of the SANFL season sees four games played
tomorrow. Here's a sneak peak of what we're in for.
with Dion Hayman
Geelong will get two first-
round draft picks in
exchange for Gary Ablett if
he accepts the lure of a
Gold Coast offer - but the
Cats will have to wait until
2012 to use them.
Under the new
compensation rules nailed
down by an AFL working
group yesterday, clubs that
lose an elite player will
receive not only a first-
round selection, as was
previously on offer, but
also a mid-first-round
selection. It is a victory of
sorts for the Cats and
other clubs with top-
drawer players under the
eye of recruiters from Gold
Coast and Greater Western
Sydney.
But the AFL has decreed
that handing over the
compensatory first-round
selections in 2010 and
2011, when Gold Coast
and Greater Western
Sydney have their big shot
at the footballing youth of
the nation, is ''too
disruptive'', in the words of
Andrew Dillon, the
league's list development
general manager.
In 2010 and 2011, when
the expansion clubs have a
near-monopoly on the
draft, no compensatory
first-round picks will be
allowed. - Fairfax
